He is a low power guy (35 power- and I have scouting on 100% accuracy), whereas all 3 guys hitting further down in the order have more HR, higher SLG, and better power rating (Bichette, Castellano, Cockrell)
And actually just happened again, only this time Eric Young is at clean-up in the 4 hole!

Obviously I can just go ahead and manually change it in this case, however it tells me that other teams (and I do see this often) will have some unrealistic lineups.

Not sure why this happens or what others do about it? Hopefully it can be worked out/fixed by the developers. I would assume teams will "compete" better and win/lose more realistically when they have proper line ups (e.g. one of their best hitters in the 4 hole, like has been throughout MLB history).
